Lovely little bach!

My friends and I loved our stay in this beautiful bach. The description and photos are very accurate, and the location is just AMAZING! If you want a quiet spot to chill, while still close to Martinborough, this is surely the place to go.

Relaxing getaway

What a fantastic stay - stunning views from a cosy cottage, with a wood burner fireplace for warm and atmosphere. Great location, and walks/river for my son to explore. Owners even took him out on the farm buggy to round up sheep and look at taxidermy - he was in heaven! And I got to soak in the atmosphere and relax in nature. Bliss.
